How Do You Get Pre-Approved For Buying Your Next Car?

Thinking Of Buying A Car? Start With The Pre-Approval

When it’s time to buy a new car, it’s only natural to explore inventories, take a test drive, find a financing plan, fill out the paperwork, and then claim the keys—but there’s a critical step missing from this equation. Before even beginning, your first concern is usually getting pre-approved for an auto loan. After all, this quick step helps you cut hours out of the shopping process while helping you plan in advance by giving you an idea of the types of financing you can qualify for. Plus, since this process is only a soft pull, you have virtually nothing to lose when it comes to your credit score. Get started today by getting pre-approved at Spitzer Ford Hartville, your local Ford finance center near Alliance, OH.

Why Is A Pre-Approval So Important—And What Is It?

With a pre-approval, the name says it all—this process helps you determine the types of loans you can qualify for—even long before filling out a Ford credit application. Before you start looking at cars, a pre-qualification helps you determine your budget to assist you in planning the types of vehicles and trims you can work into your financial plan.

But are you worried about your credit score? No need to panic, as this process only requires a soft pull. In other words, you won’t hurt your credit score by taking five minutes to fill out the application. Even better, this pre-approval is good for 180 days, giving you ample time to help you find your next ride.
